Hyderabad, Telangana (India), December 19, 2024: Being a mechanical engineer in India today can come with its challenges. This is where Bhargava Krishna, an industry expert and educator, came to be passionate about empowering young engineers across India. His journey from a mechanical engineering graduate to the founder of BK Engineering shows his commitment to making technical education more accessible to all.
After graduating with a B.Tech in Mechanical Engineering in 2014, Bhargava’s academic path took an international turn when he pursued his master’s degree at the University of South Florida. Having worked for several mechanical engineering companies and startup environments, he has a thorough awareness of the inner workings of the sector.
“The biggest challenge I saw was the huge skill gap between academic learning and industry requirements,” he explains. “Many graduates were technically qualified but not practically prepared.” This observation became the focal point of BK Engineering, which he founded in 2021 after returning to India during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Moreover, Bhargava’’s approach to education is refreshingly inclusive. Recognising the linguistic barriers in technical learning, he creates content in Telugu, ensuring that technical knowledge reaches students in Telugu-speaking states who might struggle with English-medium resources. His content strategy is multilayered – over 600 blogs, numerous videos, and free online courses that make mechanical engineering accessible to all.
Through platforms like Instagram, Youtube and the BK Engineering website, he offers free courses and information, breaking down complex technical concepts into digestible content. His thought leadership articles tackle critical issues like skill development, career guidance, and technological predictions.
Some of his most impactful content series include ‘Bridging the Skill Gap in Mechanical Engineering Through Training and Education’, ‘How to Build a Successful Career as a Mechanical Design Engineer’ and ‘5 Ways Generative AI Will Revolutionize Mechanical Engineering by 2030’. Each piece reflects his deep industry insights and forward-thinking approach.
“I want to inspire a new generation of engineers who are curious, adaptable, and ready to solve real-world challenges,” Bhargava shares.
